Speedy Fox Featured Designer - Pat G

I have been a Senior Design Team member for Marks Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company as well as the Speedy Fox and Friends Blog Challenge for nearly 2 years - with a 1 1/2 years as the Blog Team Coordinator.

I have been stamping since 2005, and my specialty is backgrounds. I could make them by the hours. I also love, love, love techniques and trying new ones out. I have been published a few times in Vamp Stamp News and Just Cards. I love the challenge every month when new stamps come in the mail and creating with them is great fun. I have been a crafty person since I was young, taking part in many craft shows doing Toll painting, knitting, crocheting, sewing, cross stitch and now rubber stamping.

On most days I am a Shift Supervisor for Wendy's, and I try to spend my days off stamping and designing in between doing laundry and vacuuming. My husband and I live on a small farm in Central Florida. My youngest child is a student at USF in Tampa, and my 3 older children live up north in Ohio where I am from.  You can find Pat's DOUBLE EMBOSSED tutorial here on SpeedyTV and her blog here for more inspiration.

Speedy Fox Featured Designer Cathy C

 

I’m a Canadian mom to a busy three year old, and as my husband and I both work outside of the home, so the time we have together as a family is precious. That said, whenever I can carve out a few moments, I enjoy being creative in one way or another.  My crafting time is precious too!  I started stamping in 2008, mostly just so I could do something different for my holiday cards, but once I caught the bug, paper crafting became one of my favourite things to do. 

I became a member of Mark’s Finest Papers Senior Design Team back in September of 2012, and I’ve really enjoyed my time on the team.  I look forward to seeing the new images each month as they are always beautiful, and they lend themselves to many different styles of card making.  The style that comes most naturally to me is shabby chic, with lots of distressing, layering, and embellishments.  More recently, however, I’ve been focusing on a more clean and simple style, which I find helps to showcase stamps and techniques. This has really shown me how versatile Mark’s Finest Papers stamps are!

Whatever style you like to do, water colouring is a great technique to have in your repertoire.  For this reason my tutorial will show you how to water colour with markers.  I hope you enjoy!  You can find Cathy's tutorial here on SpeedyTV and her blog here.
